I Really love the Usborne books. Right now we're working on phonics. Shark in the Park, Racoon on the Moon, Bee Makes Tea, Hyena Ballerina, Pig on a Dig, etc.

I think a balance of formal textbooks and informal learning tools like picture books and stories are helpful for children.

Like a story to teach a concept rather than raw facts. That would have made studying so much fun . You know books like Dear Greenpeace introduces kids to the topics like ecology, conservation etc. It's fun to read the story as well as informative.
This is a really fascinating idea. I think it would be really helpful for most kids.
